Over 150 students, faculty, and staff gathered at Mason Korea's Fall 2024 Convocation to celebrate the arrival of a new, international cohort at the IGC Banquet Hall.
"You represent a truly global cohort, coming from 15 different countries," remarked Mason Korea's new Campus Dean, Joshua Park. "These include South Korea, the United States, China, the Dominican Republic, Mongolia, Nigeria, Cambodia, Canada, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, and the United Kingdom."
“This entering class of Fall 2024 will be the only group that I will be able to say that we started our Mason journey together,” he added, concluding with “Let’s make this journey ‘All Together, Different.’"
Kelley Chung, Associate Dean for Admissions and Government Affairs, also welcomed the incoming class, noting that 2024 has been a significant year for Mason Korea. Not only did the campus celebrate its 10th anniversary, but it also reached its target enrollment quota of 300 students. "These 300 students represent a diverse range of academic interests, backgrounds, and passions," she stated.
Shannon Davis, Associate Dean for Faculty and Academic Affairs, and Student Government President Sherlin Amaya Medrano also shared congratulatory remarks.
The event concluded with the Mason Korea Spirit Awards, recognizing students for their contributions and positive attitudes during the two-day Mason Mingle welcome activities.
